Meer over het boek

JANETTE TURNER HOSPITAL's electrifying novel chronicles the lives of two strangers connected by the tragic loss of parents in a hijacked Paris--New York flight. As an adult, Samantha, one of the children set free by the terrorists, has become obsessed with the hijacking. Under the guise of her senior thesis, she pulls Lowell, the son of a victim, into a web of terror, death, and betrayal that he has spent his adult life trying to forget. Hospital probes with astonishing acuity the worlds of espionage and intelligence gathering, and the painful meaning of survival.
